It may take long for anything to happen, and other events that we do not
want to handle outside the mainloop may start accumulating in buffers.
You should not break an asynchronous system by trying to make it
synchronous. The proper way to handle this would be allowing 
continuations specified for asynchronous actions, e.g.

        wedln:paste(function() wedln:back() end)

But such are not supported, at the moment at least.
